Sustainability has been a model of practice for ABA for the past 30 years. Combining a respect for the past with a progressive vision of the future, ABA's projects seek to conserve and maximize material, energy, and cultural significance for generations to come. ABA believes that the most sustainable project is one that achieves high standards for technical and operational performance while successfully meeting the needs of the users now and long into the future.

ABA is a member of the U.S. Green Building Council and the AIA's 2030 Commitment to reduce energy consumption in the built environment. ABA has LEED Accredited professionals on staff and has designed LEED Platinum, Gold, Silver and Certified projects.
